“Climate change is a critical development challenge and an increasing threat to SMEs in developing countries… the ITC continues to pursue new approaches to mitigate emissions in every element of our operations.”

“Achieving climate neutrality is a challenge in an international organization with a global mandate and presence, but decisive action on climate change is essential and the UN system must lead by example.”Juan Somavia, Director-General, International Labour Organization (ILO)
